RE: Raking in huge profits from "Real
World" Products on autopilot
Dear Friend,
If you're absolutely fed up with fighting other affiliates
for scrap profits from marketing info-products in ridiculously competitive
niches and have become frustrated with traditional affiliate
marketing, than this will be the most
important thing you read today.
Listen I understand
your frustration, it wasn't that long ago that I was working
full-time at my local toy store while trying to be an Internet marketer in
the evening.
I was in for marketing junkie, purchasing and just
about every course that I could afford and sometimes blowing my
whole paycheck on the latest and greatest affiliate marketing
material.
I would set site after site up, attempt to
optimize it for the search engines, and sit there for days for
traffic. Sometimes the traffic came sometimes it didn't, either way
it resulted in no sales whatsoever.
It wasn't until the Christmas holiday season
rolled around that I had a breakthrough experience that would change
the way that I would do affiliate marketing for the rest of my life.
In my Toys' R' Us store, it was two days before Christmas and
busier than ever. I was working the floor helping customers find
what they were looking for as they made mad dashes through the
aisles trying to find the right toy that their kids were requesting
at the last minute before Christmas.
I had gotten there at 7 AM,when the store opened,
and wasn't scheduled to go home until 10 at night ( talk about a
long day).
All throughout the day customers will come up to
me asking me "which videogame is better?", "which remote-control car
is better?", "which Barbie doll set should I get?", and my favorite
question, "what's the best toy I can get my sons for less than 50
bucks?"
By the I got home it was almost midnight and I was
absolutely exhausted.
I was determined to finish up my affiliate site
that started two nights before. My logic was the sooner I got enough
profitable sites up and running, the quicker I could quit my stupid day
job at the toy store.
So I sat there staring at the screen trying to
write a review for the latest clickbank product that I was trying
to promote.
Nothing was coming out... I couldn't think of one
thing to write about this product because I never actually bought it
or even read it, yet here I was, sitting there trying to write a
review for some e-book that I knew nothing about.
I was just about to quit when I had an "ah hah"
moment. I asked myself "Why am I sitting here trying to review
digital products that I haven't even seen before instead of
reviewing products that I knew everything about?"
"What do I know alot about.... Then it hit me like
a ton of bricks... TOYS!
As store manager, I knew everything there was to
know about every toy in every aisle of
Toys "R" Us. So instead of writing about the latest and greatest
e-book I decided to write about one of the best sellers in my store
at the time "Kota of my triceratops". This was a $300 -
3 foot fully automated dinosaur that kids like to get on his back while he wags his tail, made
noises and moved his body... and this thing was selling like crazy!
I signed up for Amazon's affiliate program because
I'd heard some of the marketers had success marketing physical
products on there. I wrote my one page affiliate review based
on
everything that I knew about the toy, and everything that I heard parents say they didn't like and very much
liked about the toy.
I posted the articles, connected my affiliate
links, and submitted an article to the major article directories. I went to sleep that night at about 2 AM.
10AM the following morning I found my article and
my site
ranked on the first page of Google after only doing some moderate SEO! (I didn't know
this at the time, but
real-world physical products are a
heck of a lot easier to rank for terms that get thousands of
searches a month than Clickbank products!)
By 8 PM the next night I made 7 affiliate sales of
this $300 dinosaur...and as they say... the rest was history. |
